    Man, Temple may have just lost out on a BIG TIME recruit. My friend(the HS scout) has been telling me for weeks that this kid was leaning to Temple, but who knows now. Maybe you remember this guy?

    yea saw this. what a kick in the pants to Dunph. Not only was Brunson supposedly coming with his dad but he was going to bring Levan Alston's son who is at Haverford School i believe and is a top 100 recruit as well.

    so apparently Jalen Brunson is announcing on wednesday between Nova and Illinois and looks like Nova is going to be it. This has to be devastating to Temple fans.

    Yeah, if he does go to Nova.

    My friend, who has some scouting buddies in Illinois, have been reporting all along that he's going to Illinois. For some reason Brunson didn't take all of his visits, and Nova was one he didn't visit and that's another reason why the guess is Illinois. Hope he goes to Nova. I saw him last year score OVER 50 pt.s in the State Final.

    he visited Nova last weekend. he cancelled Temple's which was supposed to be this weekend. Apparently the family wants to move back from the area...i'm guessing when your dad sexually assaults someone moving out of the area is probably a good idea.

    this might be jay's biggest recruit ever. i can't believe this...was sure he would opt for illinois just like all these other top recruits who say nova is in their final few schools. fucking huge for nova as well as the big east.

    he's the real deal cutz?

    Yeah, he is the real deal. Plus, if you go by the rankings, he is a LOCK to be a McDonalds All American. GREAT get for Nova, and like you said, The Big East too.

    That State Final game i saw last year he was so good it was RIDICULOUS.

    Jason Frazier was a top 3 , if not #1 recruit in the country.

    as much as I dislike Nova I can't imagine anyone choosing to play for John Groce over Jay Wright.

    Dunph must be banging his head against the wall repeatedly about this one.

    yea big for the league but the Big East needs another team to step up to compete with Nova year in and year out. Nova looks like they could end up dominating this league over the next 4 or 5 years.

    i think this nova team is good enough to make a deep run come march. something to be said for an older team who's played with each other for a few years now...plus they out hustle their opponent night in, night out.

    I loved Nova tonight. Jay always has them ready in these big out of conference games and beating VCU is about beating their press.

    if Nova stays healthy they will be good enough to beat just about everyone outside of Kentucky. Just think Kentucky is too big for them.

    Big East has had a great start to the season. they've already had some big wins.

    of course my Hawks aren't very good again. .500 probably.

    LaSalle looks pretty good again. Temple will be better. Penn is awful.

    Wow, and I thought Ennis' 1st half block was nice. Looks like the Cats will be good this year. Tell them to take it easy on my Explorers next week. LaSalle has #8 Virginia Friday night at the Barclays.

    usually when an offensive player gets knocked to the ground it's a foul. i guess not on that one though.

    great game though. glad i stayed up to watch it (except for the ending). high level and high energy game. Jay gets them to play so hard.

    and shouldn't we start a 2014-2015 thread. i hate seeing the 2013-2014 title.

    i actually think he got all ball. if you watch in slow motion, he doesn't move his hand down on the guys arm right away, rather he moves it kind of behind his head. unbelievable play.

    I was wondering if the guy from behind fouled him but oh well.

    i think he got all ball as well but it is very difficult for a ref to see that he got all ball on a play like that which is why they usually call a foul when a guy falls like that.

    pretty amazing play that he didn't foul him coming from the guarding the in-bounder though.

    and I love Dan Dakich as a commentator. he is highly underrated and really gives a lot of good insights.

    Nice comeback by LaSalle tonight. Down 20, had it down to 4 at the line and bricked the 1&1. They can play good D but the FT shooting is horrendous.

    not sure i've every had less enthusiasm for a St. Joe-Nova game as the one tomorrow. Nova 78-46 is my prediction. Nova's 2nd team would beat this Hawks team by double digits.

    that being said as it is on every day that ends in Y...Fuck Nova

    only on days that end in Y.

    and for the 2nd time they get away with a foul at the end of the game. Cooney gets knocked over and no call. probably at least 2 fouls on the play for the steal to tie the game.

    hell yeah! only good part of the weekend. 2 thoughts-

    1- how old is cooney now? 30? I feel like he's been there since 2005.
    2- nova needed a win like this. things have been too easy so far. I think this is a legitimate final four contending team. gonna be a fun season.

    go cats.
